What can you find in the Foot-Store Care selection?
This page brings together the equipment used to prevent or relieve minor physical issues related to playing football: compression bandages, strapping, sprays, and ice packs, as well as medical bags to carry this equipment on the sidelines. You’ll find products designed for both players and coaches and club physiotherapists.
Bands, strapping, ice packs: which ranges to choose?
The choice mainly depends on when you use the product, before, during, or after exercise.
- The strapping and bands are used to support a joint or muscle, as a preventive measure before a match or to support a vulnerable area.
- Cold therapy and ice packs are used right after a shock or sprain to limit inflammation on the pitch.
- Sprays allow for a quick application, without handling, often during a break in play.
- Medical bags contain all the necessary supplies for a therapist, so they are always on hand on the bench.
- The care category brings together more classic application products, creams or balms, for use before or after exercise.

Frequently asked questions
Where can you find cheap sports care equipment?
The good deals and clearance pages gather care products offered at reduced prices based on stock availability. It’s useful to check them regularly, especially before the season starts or during sales periods.
What’s the difference between a cold spray and an ice pack?
The cold spray is applied directly to the skin and works quickly, making it practical during a break in play. The ice pack needs to be kept cold or activated before use, but it covers a larger area and remains effective longer.
What care equipment should be packed in a therapist bag?
A club medical bag generally contains bands, strapping, a cold reserve, and a few basic care products. The bags from the luggage selection are suitable for transporting this set on the sidelines.
Do strapping and compression bands serve the same purpose?
Both are used to support a joint, but the strapping is stiffer and can be cut to the desired length, while the elastic band rolls and is easier to reuse. The choice mainly depends on the preference of the player or therapist.
When should you buy care equipment before the season resumes?
It’s best to check your stock of bands, strapping, and cold products before training resumes or at the start of the season, when physical demands increase. The new arrivals and special offers sections keep you updated on stock throughout the year.
